Prevention of contamination is one of the most important goals of GMP. Contamination of product is often difficult to detect, so GMP rules emphasise preventive measures, including: attention to personal health and hygiene, and the wearing of special clothing, by staff; and cleaning and sanitation of premises and equipment. In this short course we set out the basics of GMP requirements in these vital areas.
Analytical statistical elements are essential concepts in the design of clinical trials. This analysis helps us to understand whether a conclusion from a study of a sample of the target population applies generally to that population as a whole. In particular, it helps us to answer the question: Did the treatment effect in the given study occur just by chance? The statistical elements of a well-controlled study minimise the chances of drawing the wrong conclusions, by providing clear thresholds for such errors. The basic statistical elements of a clinical trial include eligibility criteria, randomisation, sample size, power, and blinding, and these are discussed in this short course.

The demands on quality from clinical trials are increasing. Quantitative aspects of clinical trials, such as the mass of study data to be collected, the multiple investigational sites, and the need to meet predetermined timelines, often supersede qualitative features. Therefore, addressing basic requirements for quality management is essential when preparing a clinical trial. This short course describes the core elements required for the establishment of a clinical trial and provides an overview of the role of the sponsor in supporting and improving trial quality.

Capture and management of clinical trial data is a challenge. The industry is under pressure to obtain and analyse such data more quickly, while maintaining data integrity, so that products can be brought to market sooner. Effective planning and adequate resources can ensure clinical trials yield high quality data within strict timelines and budget requirements, at the same time satisfying regulatory standards. This short course describes the purpose of data capture and explores efficiencies in data management as part of the evolving regulatory landscape.

Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) is a set of rules for medicines manufacturers to follow so that their products are safe, effective, and of good quality. Everyone who works in a processing, quality control, packaging, or warehouse environment for a pharmaceutical or biotechnology company, or one of their contractors, must understand why GMP is important, how it applies to them, and how to comply with it. This short course explains what GMP is and why it is important, and it gives some lessons from history. It introduces the regulations and guidance documents that are the source of GMP rules. Finally, it touches on regulatory inspections and the consequences that can arise from failure to comply with GMP requirements.
